The farmer pointed out the various crops and discussed the techniques he used to cultivate them, while the scientist asked questions and listened intently. They eventually stopped at the edge of the field and admired the beauty of the night sky. The scientist looked up and spotted a shooting star, and they both made a wish. There was a moment of silence between them, but then the farmer smiled and said, "Life is really quite beautiful, isn't it?" The scientist smiled back and agreed.
